    Re: 2011-12 Minnesota Season Thread (Pride On Ice Returns!)

    I just looked through the articles on forwards, goalies and defense men to watch and noticed not a single Gopher made it. (Think INCH lists were the same.) Not that many years ago, you would always find a couple Gophers. I hope that by next year, we have a couple players making those lists again. (Not that I wouldn't be surprised to see someone like Bjugsted considered to be a top ten forward by year's end, or Patterson a top 10 goalie.) Used to be we had a D-man at least worth considering every year.

        They don't get points in non-conference games.

              A good chunk, not all.

              A lot of people are brushing these games off as unimportant without realizing the true impact of actually picking up two wins.

                I don't think I really care, but why do I have -10737424 reputation point(s).

                Does that mean that 10 millon people already hate me after only 8 posts?

                  Kloos Provides Instant Offense


                  Justin Kloos was cradling the puck behind the goal line.

                  Two strides later he was gliding into a sliver of an opening in the slot.

                  With a quick flick of the wrists, the puck was rocketing under the crossbar.

                  Goal.

                  Scoring plays develop quickly when Team Southeast’s Kloos is on the ice. Blink an eye, and the Lakeville South senior very well might have deposited another puck in the net. Or, just as likely, delivered a pinpoint pass to set up a goal.

                  The first of Kloos’ two goals came just 42 seconds into Team Southeast’s eventual 5-5 tie with Team Southwest on Sunday, Oct. 9, at New Hope Ice Arena. He scored again with 22 seconds left in the second, wrapping the puck around the left post just before the net was knocked out of place.

                  Generally, time and space is limited in the frenetically paced Upper Midwest High School Elite Hockey League. The laws of physics, and hockey, seem to change when Kloos is operating with the puck. Speed and elusiveness are hallmarks of the 5-foot-8, 177-pound senior’s game, yet the University of Minnesota recruit also has the uncanny ability to dial the game into slow motion when he is in scoring position.

                  Kloos’ three-point afternoon against Team Southwest gives him 34 points (16 goals, 18 assists) in 15 games. Team Southeast’s Jake Guentzel of Hill-Murray, Kloos’ linemate for much of the fall, ranks second in the league with 28 points.

                  “We play pretty well together, we see each other a lot,” Kloos said about being paired with the 5-8½, 150-pound Guentzel. “It has been fun. We’re both small, creative forwards. Create offense, that’s kind of our mentality.”

                  Kloos and Guentzel were linemates for parts of three seasons as grade-schoolers playing for the Triple A Icemen.

                  “I think teams try to play a little more physical on us, because we’re kind of the crafty offensive forwards,” said Kloos, who scored 41 goals and added 49 assists last season in 27 games and is the state’s top returning scorer heading into the 2011-12 season. “Other than that, we have a bunch of good players on our team, so I don’t think they are locking on to our line.”

                  Team Southeast (10-2-3) leads the Elite League standings with 24 points, two ahead of Team Northeast (9-3-3).

                  Last season Team Southeast went 12-7-2 and finished one point behind Team North in the regular season standings.

                  “I just wanted my team to win,” Kloos said about his Elite League goals entering the season. “If our team has a better record that it did last year, then overall it is a success.”

                  With six games remaining in the regular season, Kloos’ 34 points already tops the 33 registered by 2010 scoring champion Tony Cameranesi of Team Northwest.

                    Well, you're not in the red so it can't be all bad.

                    And no it doesn't mean that, someone who is better versed on the rep points thing can explain it.

                      It just was Red, now it's +17 billion.

                      Thanks. I won't worry about it. Maybe I'll go talk crap to some cheeseheads and get it red again.

                        Go for Jan Brady. They are so sensitive up there in the Cloud you'll get lots of negative rep and they'll never sign it.

                              Minnesota has a good Simple Math schedule this year. They have to win the games though to cash in on it.

                                Did anyone hear Lucia tonight on the radio? He said he pretty much pushed Mario away from the U. He said he felt he wasn't fair to Tony (implying he felt he held him back a little to avoid appearance of favoritism .) Having coached my kids at much lower levels of sports, I can understand the problem and can only imagine what it would be like at that level. Just hope Notre Dame doesn't win it all with Mario playing a major role.

                                He did say it is much different for the son of an assistant, since the assistant doesn't set the roster. Sounds like he is leaving it open for Jake Guentzel.

                                So what is the deal with TV for Saturday game?
